For me, it's either

Living in America - James Brown

Play that funky music - Wild Cherry

Walk the Dinosaur - Was not was

Anyone think of any better?

Damn Marvin Gaye sounds so slick in this. Wicked tune dude. Samples taken from Marvin's "Midnight Love" album... but love that big squelchy bassline

Listening to Poppa Was a Rolling Stone on the Motown Song programme right now... that intro is the funkiest ever, surely?

Some great tunes mentioned already.

Superstitious. Play that funky music.

80s Prince for sure.

I'll chuck in a couple for anyone who thinks Uptown Funk is an original idea:

Check out Jungle Love, Cool and The Bird by the Time. Minneapolis funk at it's best

By the 70s funk had changed due to electric technology. With synthesisers being used more.
